"I didn't even know you got a shower for your second baby!" said American Morning anchor Kiran Chetry, surveying the scene at a baby bash thrown in honor of her impending arrival.

"I've been a fan of Kiran's for a long time," said shower host Jennifer Klein, wife of CNN/US president Jonathan Klein. "Of course, CNN is on 24 hours a day in our house!"

3. Nail Therapy

Guests like Veronica De La Cruz were invited to make the most of the occasion, indulging in manicures, pedicures and chair massages. In keeping with eco-friendly theme of the shower, manicurists used vegan polishes from SpaRitual. "There are so many options to live the eco-cool lifestyle," said host Klein. "You can find everything from food, to clothing and even spa products."

4. Co-Anchors

"Kiran is the thinnest pregnant woman I have ever seen," marveled Campbell Brown, who brought along her 3 month-old son, Eli. "For the longest time she barely even looked pregnant!" Would Brown take advantage of the spa services? "With a baby? Forget it! My manicure days are over," she declared.

5. Tiny Touchup

In between return trips to the manicure table, Chetry's daughter Maya helped her mom stay looking fresh. "The viewers were the ones who caught on first," Chetry-who is expecting a boy-said of her baby bump. "They've been so supportive."
